MSF works in India to address healthcare gaps for the most marginalized and vulnerable populations, including those with infectious diseases like DR-TB, advanced HIV, and Hepatitis. Our teams strive to provide essential healthcare in remote areas of the country, and also offer free, high-quality counseling services. MSF has worked in India since 1999 and our teams currently operate medical projects in Jammu & Kashmir, Bihar, Manipur, Mizoram, Chhattisgarh, and Maharashtra. Additionally, we advocate for the development of more effective and affordable medicines to improve global access to treatment. MSF was awarded the 1996 Indira Gandhi Prize for Peace, Disarmament, and Development, and the 1999 Nobel Peace Prize.
